De Koux, a miuing engineer and expert, who has been prospecting in the vicinity of the Sisters, returned Sunday from a business trip to San Francisco. He is very favorably im pressed with Crook's mineral possi bilities. ' J.

The Dalles Shaniko stage which le't ghaniko last Fiidxy evening, arrived here Sunday evening. The rod erose Ward creek taice, and, after making the first crossing where the water ran over the top of the wagon, the stage driver was unable to pro ceed or go back, and had to remain there 12 hours in a soaking rain until the waters subsided enough to allow him to make the next crossing. Last Monday the Chinese residents of this city celebrated their New Year by Inviting everybody to a fine dinner at the Prineville Hotel, to which invi tation nearly 200 people responded. They also gave each pu pil in the city 'school a 10 cent bug of candy and every smoker in town a good cigar. These people celebrate their holidays in a novel and generous manner, sel dom observed among other people. allowed the carrier on each trip, if the box delivery service were required. That such service will be greatly ap preciated in these sparsely settled re gions goes without saying, and the only wonder ia that the svstcm was not adopted long ago. Crooked river was higher but Sun day morning than it haa known foi years. Many bridgee have been washed away and roads damaged. Fuller & Co. lost quite a number of fat hogs at their feeding pens on the river bottom south of town by their being waahed away and chiflrd to death in the water.. Had not the weather opportunely turned colder great damage might have been done as both bridges west of town were on the point of giving way. The heavy rain and snow which haa since fallen will be, notwithstanding the wsshsots of immense value to the farming aud stock interests as the former thorough ly saturated the soil and the latter will afford abundant water for irriga tion next summer. The spectacle of the Oregon legisla ture being held up every two years by tome senatorial aspiraut whose money is his chief attribute of fitness is be coming exceedingly stale and trying ts the eyes of honest men. Admit that Corbet t is a statesman; admit that his financial ability is unequaled; that his honesty and integrity are above reproach ; admit that he is the ! equal in every respect of any A her as pirant and the fact remains that the people do not want him. Should lie be elected he will have bought the place, defrauded the people of their choice, debauched the legislature and debased himself. The gang of hire lings that surround and the legislators who are carrying a part of his wealth in their inside pockets are but mer cenary tools who should have no place in a republic We have no prejudice against Coibett as a citizen but against his political methods we are unalter ably opposed. Better no senator from Oregon than to have the name of having been bought, body, soul and breeches. Aw.fr .
